I've posted already, but I wanted to give some more info behind my reason for selecting the re-roll option.

Last night in my OT group we ended up having 2 warriors in our group. One of them knew he was less geared than the other so he opted to DPS. He then tanked a few mobs to drop himself down to berserking and the other well geared tank took over.

This warrior had a heck of a time staying in berserking.

He was constantly fighting with the healer NOT to heal him. But then he'd pull aggro and ask for a heal. He wasn't obnoxious about it or anything but I think there was a lot less room for error.

I think the big unanswered question is who would be at fault if the berserking warrior died?
He was the one fighting to stay in berserking. Not being the tank made him less than #1 priority on heals.
Who knows. But maybe that's another point for discussion.


The DPS warrior couldn't chain pull while the other warrior tanked because he would get beat on and almost die.
He did some fancy big numbers here and there (I can't speak to actual dps) but overall it seemed to be a worrying experience between him and the healer.

I think that he pulled his weight as a group member. He was flexible and able to do SOME dps while another warrior tanked. But I don't think trying to stay in berserker 100% of the time and only DPSing as a warrior would work.

My 2 cp. Take it as you please.
